Yeah pretty much everyone has said TAKE THE JOB. I will probably take the job. The one thing that made me lean heavier in that way was the knowledge of the long term disability insurance. If I were to eventually go on that due to me being too sick to work, It would be something like 60-70% of my normal wages when I worked, for life. Which compared to what i'm making NOW, is more, so that is good. I'm gonna have to call up the SS tomorrow and pick her brain on some things. I have several questions, one of which being: Since I am medically disabled NOW, and get the short and long term disability insurance, when I get too sick to work anymore and have to quit due to that, will they accept that? Or will they say I had this disability previously so there fore you are exempt. My mom is a big HR person and I asked her, she said it all depends on the company's policy company. The thing is you can't spook your employer with a ton of questions centered around your condition. They think i'm 100% normal. During an interview to help describe gaps in employment I told them I had some health issues in the past. That is all I said. Like I said before, the scariest part for me is if I take the job and realize it's not for me, my boss is a complete ass that I can't stand, or something similar in the realm of "I can't do this anymore", all my previous backups are gone. Sucky. Thanks for all the kind words and advice, including Chris.

I agree that putting in a call to Beth Sufian might not be a bad idea.
My understanding is that, even after the 9 month trial period, if you get to a point where you can no longer work again, you can go back on SSDI. I'm not sure if there are different rules for 'survivor' SSDI (i.e., getting it through your Dad), but it seems to me that Social Security Disability is Social Security Disability. If you're permanently Disabled (and CF falls under that definition), and you try to work, and it goes well for a couple of years, but then you get really sick, you never STOPPED being disabled during that time you were working; therefore, while there may be some additional hoops to jump through to get back on SSDI, my understanding is that your case remains 'open' (it's just inactive while you're working).
Don't quote me on any of this though <img src="">

Take the job. Don't miss out on the opportunity because of the "What If's". Everyone has the what if's.... Even non-CF people. You can't let that sway the here & the now. It sounds like a wonderful opportunity for you and right in line with your career aspirations. Be diligent and keep up your health during the transition period into your new career - until that lifestyle becomes your new 'normal'. It sounds like you've already gone through adapting to various climates and hours, so you can do it again. Don't fret over bridges that aren't even there! Live life and have a career. It sounds like your lung stats are fabulous, so go for it! Good luck. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> ~Juliet

How long ago did you use this 9 month trial work period? If it has been less than 3 years you DO have some protection if you take the job and then get sick:

How long ago did you use this 9 month trial work period? If it has been less than 3 years you DO have some protection if you take the job and then get sick:
<br />
<br /><i>"For 36 months following completion of the trial work period, you can receive your full Social Security disability benefit for any month in which your earnings fall below the "substantial" level." </i> (<a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/ssa.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=523&p_created=978802388&p_sid=Ux3bO-4j&p_accessibility=0&p_redirect=&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9OCw4JnBfcHJvZHM9JnBfY2F0cz0xMDUsODgmcF9wdj0mcF9jdj0yLjg4JnBfc2VhcmNoX3R5cGU9YW5zd2Vycy5zZWFyY2hfbmwmcF9wYWdlPTEmcF9zZWFyY2hfdGV4dD10cmlhbCB3b3JrIHBlcmlvZA**&p_li=&p_topview=1)

<br />I would say take the job, but first get the salary and benefit information in writing.
